Flowsheet and Process design
• SGS Lakefield and
Woodgrove Technologies
(Canada) have finalised
process design, flowsheet,
and choice of process
equipment during 2010-11.
• Straight forward grinding and
flotation process.
• High recovery
• High grade
• Very low level of unwanted
elements in concentrate
• Low level of flotation
chemicals consumption
• Highly automated plant
Plant layout
• Layout designed to fit within
the existing plant building.
• Semi autogenous grinding
lowering process Opex
• Potential of lowering plant
Capex with sourcing of used
equipment
• Highly efficient new flotation
technology (SFR) needs
50% less floor space.
• State of the art press filter
technology for dewatering
